Given below are two statements : Statement I : Compound (X) , shown below, dissolves in NaHCO ₃ solution and has two chiral carbon atoms Statement II : Compound ( Y ) , shown below, has two carbons with sp ³ hybridization, one carbon with sp ² and one carbon with sp hybridization In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Options
- ABoth Statement I and Statement II are false
- BStatement I is false but Statement II is true
- CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
- DBoth Statement I and Statement II are true
Correct answer
D. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Step-by-step solution
Statement I: Two chiral centre and due to presence of -COOH compound dissolves in NaHCO₃ . Statement II: Two sp^3 carbons, one sp^2 carbon, and one sp carbon. Both statements are true.
